"They aren't that good"

GAME TIME: 7:00 CST
OPPOSITION BLOG: Hockey Wilderness
DON’T FORGET: YOUR SPG PICKS (3 MORE NEEDED TO CATCH THE LEAFS)

So... I'm in DC.. I've been walking around all day enjoying myself. Now I just got back in order to throw up a game thread for you all but it's going to be pretty shitty.

The big issue, obviously, was Mikko Koivu's comment after the Hawks beat the Wild recently saying "They're not that good". Did he mean the Hawks suck? No, but it certainly didn't come good.

Sadly, he's been kinda right lately. The Hawks haven't been playing all that well. But it's a sign that they are a good team when they're playing some of their worst hockey this year but they still have points in the last 4 games.

If I were on the Hawks, I'd want to show off just how good we were...

If something else has happened today, I really don't know about it.. so fill me in in the comment section..

Lets Go Hawks

Bah

You’re still ahead of us in the Western conf. standings, and the Wild have certainly not been very good for the past 6 weeks.

My cable company doesn't carry Versus

So I’m very thankful for the online feed links that were posted in the last game thread.

You're welcome

they come in handy a LOT if you live out of state or have shitty cable (I’ve got the double-whammy in Iowa)

yes they are

I just went away to school and I was not happy about missing games. However, this is gonna be just fine.

Fuck.

Couldn’t someone else have scored?

Gah

It had to be Koivu…

This game needs a fight

Gotta spark the team and the crowd. Who’s up for it? Burish? Barker? Wiz?

I could do without the "sideline" bimbo

This isn’t football, for crying out loud.

by HappyHuman on Jan 19, 2009 9:07 PM CST reply actions

I could do without Backstrom in net

by vince_ on Jan 19, 2009 9:16 PM CST up reply actions

That too

Although he’s been giving up some big rebounds. Unfortunately the Hawks haven’t been in position to take advantage of them.

by HappyHuman on Jan 19, 2009 9:19 PM CST up reply actions

Game over

The Hawks played decently, but Backstrom was better. Sigh.

by HappyHuman on Jan 19, 2009 9:32 PM CST reply actions

Best way to keep the Hawks from generating any

offense?

Give ’em a 2 man advantage.

When you don’t do that, ice the puck. Constantly. They can’t win faceoffs.

when jacques lemaire brings a team on the road, it should be half price night wherever they go.

by 60655 on Jan 19, 2009 9:41 PM CST reply actions

Begs the question........

They ARE that good?

by JoeCoolMan24 on Jan 20, 2009 12:04 AM CST reply actions

I HATE THE GODDAMN TRAP

I want to hit Lemaire in the head with a canvas sack filled with doorknobs.
